my childhood experiences with hallucinations, how i rationalized them, and why i didnt tell anyone:
•as early as i can remember i saw colored lights, shapes and zig-zags flash across my vision, i thought this happened to everyone
•when i was about 5 i saw a gray cat run across my kitchen, we didnt have any pets at the time, i asked my older brother about it and he said "that was probably a daydream" even though i didnt conciousley create it and it looked real, i believed him and wrote off other hallucinations as daydreams for years
•when i was about 10 i was looking into a mirror and saw my eyes looking to the side, for some reason i thought mirrors were like screens and figured it was just glitching
•i was raised christian and wrote off a lot of hallucinations as god communicating with me
•when i was about 12 i learned what ASMR was and figured thats what all my tactile hallucinations had been all these years
•at the same age i started using tumblr, and would see emo posts talking about "the voices" (when they were actually just talking about mean thoughts) so i thought things like auditory command hallucinations was just a normal thing every teen experienced
•as i was hallucinating more frequntly i came up with more excuses, maybe i hadnt eaten enough, maybe i hadnt slept enough, maybe my periods and hormones were causing this
•i watched a lot of scary content on youtube and genuinely believed i was haunted by or possesed by demons
•i saw the way people treated psychotics, the way i was told to be careful near the people on the street talking to themselves, the way horror movies portrayed psychotics as danergous, the way i was told that my schizophrenic grandpa was abusive because he was schizophrenic
• the more and more i hallucinated, the more i kept to myself, i didnt want to be treated like that, i feared what would happen to me if people found out, i knew something was wrong with me but i was terrified of letting people know that, i could talk about my anxiety or depression or sometimes cptsd symptoms, but i couldnt talk about my psychosis
i did eventually get a schizophrenia diagnosis at 18, got on antipsychotics that helped a lot, and my family and friends ended up being understanding for the most part, but i spent so much of my life being symptomatic and just excusing it any way i could, i didnt want to want to be psychotic because of the way were treated in the world, but i am, and ive learned to embrace that

Hello! If it's okay, can you please write some headcanons of Wally with a reader who has constant back pain? Thank you, have a nice day and remember to drink water!
Of course! I don't experience it much myself, so I did some research for the chapter! Please let me know if I represent anything wrong!
Wally Darling X GN Reader Back Pain Headcannons
❤️ When you first moved to the neighborhood, your friends quickly noticed your 'predicament'. You would struggle to lift larger objects, being extreamly in pain every time you tried. Their would be times, fairly often, when you would simply be walking and the pain would hit. You supposed that was why Wally took such an interest in you. Wally was by your side at all times, as soon as he noticed any pain he was right there to help you. He got Howdy to order pain meds, and started to get you medication that lessened the pain you were so consistantly in.
🧡Some days were worse then others, you accepted that. Wally on the other hand...he could never accept it. On your worse days, Wallys lays you down on the couch, gets you comfortable and puts on your favorite show. Hes always a bit touchy about you spending time with people other then him. But, whenever you ask him to, he invites all of the neighbors over to spend time with you. Though its important to him that they dont hurt you any worse since you were already in pain.
💛On days your pain is a dull ache, you help the neighbors with different activities. Sometimes youll make costumes with Sally, bake with Poppy, or watch butterflys with Frank. Youve taken notice to the fact that Wally is always keeping an eye on you during these days, although he takes a step back to be less obvious. At first it was definitely a bit odd and caused you slight discomfort, but the longer you stayed in Welcome home, the more you became used to it, after all, it was Wallys way of expressing his concern for you.
💚Youve grown accustomed to Wallys constant concern for you, and you figured that he just cared this much about all his neighbors. So, you decided to test the theory, just by watching his interactions with the others of course. But...he never seemed to be as concerned with any of them and his special attention became very apparent to you. This is when you finally spoke up to him, after all you didnt want to be babied or looked down upon simply because of some pain that youve grown accustom to.
You walked towards Home, asking to be let inside and the door simply opened. By Wallys command, Home was supposed to let you in whenever you asked after all. Quickly you made your way to Wallys room and knocked on the door. "Hey, Wally, we need to talk." You hear his muffled voice through the door, not to sure what he was doing this morning, but he was obviously not asleep. "Of course dear neighbor, come on it." You took a deep breath before opening the door. As his room came into view you could see Wally sitting at his vanity, his hair was still down as he was doing his makeup. "What did you need to talk about neighbor?" Wally turned to you, tilting his head slightly in confusion.
"Well, I wanted to ask why you baby me compared to the other neighbors? I know I experience pain...and thank you so much for trying to help, but it doesnt mean I cant take care of myself or do basic tasks!" Wally quickly looks panicked, waving his hands out in front of him. "No no neighbor! It isnt like that at all! I just dont want you to hurt yourself!" You look at him a little in disbelief. Although you enjoyed the sentiment, you simply werent that incapable. "Eddie is more accident prone then I am!" Wally huffs slightly, struggling to explain his emotions and desperatly not wanting you to be upset with him.
"Eddie is different!" You truly didnt understand why Wally was treating you different, and it hurt your pride, as well as your heart. He was treating you like a child, and you just wanted him to see you as an equal. "How is Eddie any different then me??" Wally looks at a loss for words for only a moment, collecting himself before looking into your eyes. "Because neighbor, he isnt you. You are so precious to me, and I simply wouldnt be able to stand it if you were to get hurt..." You head began to hurt, you simply couldn't understand what Wally was trying to say, and Wally didnt seem to know how to say what he wanted to. Luckily, a few creaks and groans came from Home and Wally spoke up again. "Youre right home!" Walky turns back you, walking over and gently grabbing your hands. "Your pain matters to me, because I love you [Name]."
Hopefully this was okay! I definitely struggled a little, but hopefully its not to noticable! Have an amazing day and remember to drink something!

please asexual!reader x megumi
Tumblr media
I wasnt sure if you wanted a headcannon or drabble so… here’s both. Y’all also give me way too much freedom when writing, i love it! Your wish is my command sunshine!
you actually started off as enemies, you hated that he was so expressionless and only expressed anger, discontent and disgust, how did GOJO raise him
He hated that you were exactly the same yet judged him so hard. Except you were more sarcastic and had your own sense of dark humor.
It was when you cracked a joke about yuji and sakuna at the worst possible time that he couldn’t even fight back the way his lips quirked up, he claims it was a muscle spasm.
And maybe you arent entirely horrible and unbearable and your music taste is cool and your taste in fashion is mainly dark clothes but the way you can dress for every aesthetic— hes impressed.
He wasnt smitten by just one joke… it was also the way you smiled and looked so smug after every joke you told it was cute.
“If you stop oggling at y/n and pick a food spot that would be nice” Nobara teases and his glare is back on the girl he seen as an annoying sister.
Its the day you wear your hair in its fro running out of arm strength to wrestle it into a style you opt for it and he cant help the stare. You smell like cocoa butter, skin is sun kissed and that laugh… its soft and airy and he almost hates how sickly sweet it was. That was the laugh that was reserved for him so why were you laughing with Todo?
What could that idiotic brainless brute say that was sooooooo funny? Wait why did he care?
It didnt matter cause he was already in tow when Todo reached out to touch your hair.
“With this treasure i summon—“
“Megs wait!” The nickname was an accident but you dont miss the way the red coats the tip of his ears and he clears his throat.
You use it to your advantage everything becomes “megs this” and “megs that” and hes happy to comply.
You begin flirting in insults and your friends never know if your flirting or are actually about to brawl.
“I know how much you enjoy reading so i got you this book…maybe now instead of your spikey little head being a passageway for air it can actually hold thoughts.” You smile giving him the book ignoring the way everyones jaw is on the floor. He eyes you before picking on the one thing he knew could get you bent out of shape.
“Im suprised you were tall enough to reach this.. or smart enough to find the library.”
“One day im going to finish you and not even big ragga the opp stoppa can save you” you say holding him by the front of his shirt your noses nearly touching yet he looks completely unfazed. Actually theres an arrogant smirk on his face that nobody quite expected.
“Can you two fuck already and get it over with” Maki exhasperstes and you become visibly uncomfortable… for the rest of the entire day. Her harsh comments never bothered you, he watched you say worse stuff to her and even leave her stunned before sharing a laugh.
Its when he realizes you're asexual and those comments bother you. 
He may or may not threaten to bring out mahoraga if anybody else in the group makes sexual comments around you.
“Hey megs can i wear your jacket?” You ask already wearing his black and blue motorcycle jacket over your black crop top and mini skirt hair in 2 spikey buns immitating his hair and he wants to be angry cause he hated people touching his stuff but… you called him megs. And you look hot! 
He couldn’t keep his eyes off you while you danced at the bar, he told himself it was because he was the designated driver and babysitter of the group he had to make sure everyone was okay. 
You looked so carefree and adorable in his jacket, he even pretends not to notice you using your ability to control shadows to get rid of a man who got to close but he did smile.
He likes feeding you— now hear me out! It happened after the club you had been super drunk and hungry and there was a late night ramen bar Yugi suggested but megumi cant help but watch the way you put at the chopsticks. He assumes you dont know how to use them and that begins the tradition of him feeding you every time you go out.
Until its every time you eat ramen… ramen becomes your favorite food.
“Does he know that she knows how to use chopsticks?”
“I-im not sure but he actually looks… happy? Lets not say anything”
He likes when you play with his hair.  One day hed been sitting next to you fighting sleep and all it took was a hand in his hair your nails softly scratching his scalp and he was fast asleep on your lap. He actually wrapped his arms around your midsection locking you in so you couldn’t move.
And when yuji and Todo walk into yuji and megumis shared apartment the scowl on his face is the meanest they’ve ever seen. How dare they interrupt his quiet time with his woman?!
Its quiet when he yells that at him… but an akward silence he didnt mean to yell that he was just so exhausted from all the missions hes been on and lack of times hes been able to spend with you.
“Damn take me on a date for dinner and a movie first” you break the silence and he gives you a sheepish grin laying back on your lap trying to cover the burn of his cheeks and ears.
“You hate cliche dates like that… ill take you somewhere better” he fights the urge to stutter.
And he does he takes you to a sip and paint class where neither of you follow what the teacher painted. He painted a picture of you under the moonlight and you painted a stick figure with a bunch of letter M’s on the head for his hair.
“My hair isn’t that damn spikey!”
He hangs the picture up in his bedroom anyway making sure your signature is on it.
Megs closet is your favorite place he has so many cool things he doesn’t wear.
“You jerk the tags still on it” he scoffs seeing you in his new hoodie.
You give it back because it doesn’t smell like him anyway and opt for a beanie… and jacket.
“What? Youve worn this” “no, i tried it on”
He loves when you wear his clothes and the way it looks so big on you but youre just happy with anything that his and he doesnt understand how you can be so infatuated with him or anything involving him but its equivalant to the way he was with you.
Megumi smiles down at you completely infatuated with how cute you look in his shirt, it swallows you whole but you don’t seem to mind and he doesn’t pay much attention to the denim blue dye fading onto the collar from your hair. The denim bite was a mishap you were actually trying to dye your hair the same color as his and honestly once you told him he didn’t give a damn about the dye on his new fresh white nike tee. 
“Is that my shirt?” His voice sounds annoyed but you knew better this was megs we were talking about. He always sounds annoyed and you nod cutely up at him watching as a smile builds on his face. He kisses your forehead before walking over to the kitchen ready to sneak a taste of whatever you'd been cooking. 
“I'll pop your fingers with a wooden spoon so you better think twice about going in my pot” you threaten watching as he sends a disbelieving look over his shoulder. 
“You know speaking of food Yuji told me you absolutely do know how to eat with chopsticks and that i don't need to feed you” he retorts ruffling his hair which you gasp at. You were going to fold yuji like origami and flick him far off to where he wouldn't be found. 
“Fine…you can have a bite of the salmon” you wager but he's quick.
“What?! No,3” he tries happily walking toward the stove,
“Two and you keep feeding me with chopsticks and ill show you the fudge chocolate cake i made you for dessert” you promise watching as his face lights up.

Hey! Can I request Shuichi x Kokichi's!twin (or very close friends with him) Reader, that's the Ultimate Second In Command?
THIS REQUEST IS SO CUUUUTE AAA <3 shuichi x reader gender neutral, anyone can read!
kind of short cuz i didnt know what to do, but if you guys like it i'll make a part 2!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Being The Ultimate Second In Command, you were naturally used to the incessant teasing and mockery of your older brother and counterpart, Kokichi Ouma. Given your talent, status, and age, you were very rarely taken seriously by his organization, often being cast aside in favor of your sibling. You were unseen, a puppet working from the sidelines in order to better your brother's institution, watching as he took all the credit.
While it didn't bug you in the moment, there were some nights were you wept over the lack of being seen. You felt so...overlooked. So lonely. Most people only looked to you for assistance.
Until that fateful day...
You and your brother had been locked in a Killing Game together, miraculously enough. Most of your classmates were mundane. Boring. Generally just exhausting to be around. All of them could easily be overlooked, just as you were.
All except for one - Shuichi Saihara, The Ultimate Detective.
You watched as he introduced himself to everyone, mumbling and tripping on his words like a fool. The way he fidgeted with his fingers and avoided your gaze with that hat of his. It was all so stupidly mesmerizing.
After a bit of time, you and the detective had formed a strong bond, albeit much to your twin brother's dismay. You had stopped listening to him as often, preferring to go and be by Shuichi's side.
"I don't understand why you like him so much to begin with!" Kokichi pouted, lazily hanging off his chair while pigging out in the dining hall. "What if he's one of the feds, huh? Huh?!"
"I don't really care about that..." You frowned, picking at your food. "He's nice to me...and..I dunno. It's nice to have someone look at me like a person, and not an asset for once..."
"Hey-! I am plenty nice to you!" He grunted, now sitting upside down. "Besides. He's probably only nice to you because he wants to use you. You're my sibling..so it's different."
You simply sighed, getting up and leaving the room. Of course, Kokichi followed you, teasing you relentlessly. "..I mean, you probably only defend him because youuuuu have a massive crush on him!"
You paused, trying to ignore the way the heat rushed to your ears. Was he right? Did you have a crush on the detective? No...you couldn't...you two were just friends, of course!
Kokichi noticed your hesitation. He was quiet, before he began to cackle. "You like him?! Seriously?! That is the funniest thing I have ever heard! No way! He's got zero chance!"
"Kokichi..." You grumbled, walking faster.
"I'm not letting him get with my little Y/n!" He laughed even louder. "I have to protect my wittle sibling from heartbreak!"
"Kokichi!" You finally shoved him off of you, storming off even faster.
You bumped into someone's chest, clenching your eyes shut with a soft thud. You looked up, only to see soft and shy grey eyes looking down at you.
"Ah...sorry..." Shuichi blushed, fiddling with his cap. "You okay?"
"Mmh..." The room got warmer as your knees buckled a bit. "Yeah...I'm...I'm fine.."
"Good.." Shuichi smiled softly. "Um...s-so..."
"Yeah uh..."
"Actually..." Shuichi cleared his throat, trying to ignore the way his voice cracked. "I um...was wondering...if..." "Yeah...?" You gazed up at him, eyes sparkling with excitement.
"I was wondering if y-you'd like to go o-"
"Wait just a minute!" Kokichi stormed into the hall, anger radiating from his tiny, 5'1 self. "I don't know what you think you're doing, but you better stay away from them, Shumai. They've got no time to be wasting with you, of all people." He glared at Shuichi, using only the most condescending of tones.
"I...I wasn't doing anything..." Shuichi blushed, backing up a bit. "I was gonna ask if.." His brain lagged as he tried to think of an excuse. "Exactly." Kokichi glared, taking your hand and leading you away from him. Shuichi quietly waved, looking a bit disappointed in himself. He had fallen in love with the second in command with an illegal vigilante. He knew it was wrong. Of course it was wrong. But there was just something about you that drew him in...too bad his confession had been interrupted.
Better luck next time...

Okay, here's the thing about the finale (and s3 as a whole)
First of all I wanna say, 'good' and 'fun' dont necessarily have to come together. Something objectively 'bad' can still be fun! I know I had fun a bunch of times this season, so if you enjoyed it and you had fun, I'm happy for you, and I'm not tryna say that you're 'wrong' for it, I am genuinely happy for you
But here's the thing, I didnt have fun during the finale. It felt rushed and stupid and careless, like they just wanted it done and over with, dust their hands off
- they allowed din to escape capture IMMEDIATELY, before we got a chance to see what Gideon was going to do to him or WHY he had taken extra care to capture him. They had Grogu, instead, a child apparently break away from the group of 'Foundlings are the Future' Mandalorians to save his dad alone. What?
- Gideon sees Din and Grogu moving around in the command centre and puts his helmet on going 'I'll deal with them myself'. Gideon proceeds to NOT do anything until after they destroy his precious clones, in which he waits in the room AFTER to monologue. He's a villain, yeah, but he's not stupid like that
- there were SO many things they built up only to just immediately forgo. Din's interrogation. The Armourer (and her sickly passengers) being intercepted before reaching the fleet. And then solutions to the plot appear suddenly - R5 is there now, oh he's gone. It'd be fine if it was clever, but they werent
- bo-katan is mand'alor for like. The fifth time idek. NOTHING about her previous behaviour btw especially abt her behaviour to clones. Ive been giving her the benefit of doubt thinking she'd apologise or sumn before s3 ends but. Nothing. She's just nice now or whatever
- Gideon's death was STUPID and not at all gratifying. For a villain as complex as he was, who made din and grogu's life SO hard by hunting them down, to have him die the way he did feels weak
- Paz Vizsla. Nobody cares about Paz Vizsla apparently
- the whole thing with IG-11 and IG-12 was weird and wonky. Im glad 11 is back, but that era where Grogu was pupeteering what was essentially his corpse very much rubbed wrong
- the plant thing was stupid. 'They just need room to grow' and when people were living in domes there WASNT any?? Goddamn
- WHERE IS PERSHING??
The whole thing felt...uncared for, you know? Like they didnt care for the story they wrote, they just wanted cameo after cameo, 'ooh jack black ooh gideons wearing mando armour ooh ig-11 is a mech suit now' and then didnt even bother tying a ribbon, they just chucked the box on your doorstep. The characters felt ooc, namely Bo-Katan BUT ALSO Din Djarin himself. Thats not what Mando would do, became such a common sentiment while watching. And its so disappointing because they had all the potential!! It couldve been SO GOOD
I just. Sigh. I wish they cared, yknow?

Tenjiku's Characters Book
(Most of thesw i found in Twitter, so, i will give a credit and include their username on the picture)
Tumblr media
Hint or what ? I never thought Sanzu would get along with other people (?) Hanma looks delicious btw.
Tumblr media
Cutie Ran ,AAAAAAAAAAA. His braids !!! They are so cuteeeee. I was expecting Ran in ponytail while running, but jeez, he looks fabulous.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
They are so wild ? As expected from Roppongi's Ruler. They are living in Roppongi, known for a party life city AND RICH RICH. Were their party really happened just like what have been pictured by fans in fanfic ? You know... but i dont think so, they probably want to invite random people from their gang and have some fun, from the infos of Rindou, the one that drink a lot and love being a Dj and want to be a club famous owner is Rindou, so, i think the party people is Rindou but got scolded by Ran because disturbed his peaceful life.
Haitanis might just have some fun with their gang, i cant imagine them with anyone other than their prescious gang. I got the vibes from them, that they only hanging out with someone that worth it. They are kinda have elite vibe.
Tumblr media
Now, i see. It is Ran's idea for them looks urban and stylish. He love attention. We both like Yves Saint Laurent. He preferred living with modern lifestyle.
Tumblr media
Rinnn, why you have to be so cute. So, he afraid of Ran because Ran kind of a moody person, that's so funny. He likes DJ and alcohol so, that would be understable for him want to have a club, a famous club. Roppongi is his favourite, he must be proud to be born in Roppongi. He drank an alcohol while Ran in dreamland, he is so naughty little boy, no wonder Ran got worried so much about him, that's make why he admired Kaku because Kaku is obedient little brother., that's cute.
Ran is passive person while Rindou is active person, Ran like being all by himself, and Rindou still in his youngest sibling moments.
Tumblr media
Basically, me and Sanzu share a lot same thing. My blood type is AB, i like magenta pink , i like cheesecake too, i hate spicy too because it make me uncomfortable and fencing is for life. I decided to come in conclusion about Sanzu's behaviour. I did some analyze about him, he sweet, blunt and a bit naive (?) He mostly did everything that suit with his feelings and need. Just like my theory before, the Tokyo Revengers characters appreciate childhood friend more than bestfriend, which is happened between Sanzu and Baji. Sanzu is weird and clueless (?) He violent but naive. Not to mention his blood type is AB, which is considered as 4-Dimensional person in Japan ( or other country in Asia). I really wanted to know how Mikey furious about the hair. Sanzu didnt understand the weird thing he did.
What makes me really sad that Sanzu taking care of himself since he was kid, he learned everything all by himself by watching his surrounding. When he asked about hair treatment, it seems like he curious person that love to do thing that make him attracted, he got no one that cared or loving him as a good family member, Mikey got Shin and Emma, meanwhile, Baji has his mom to take care of him. He hate traitor but not Baji ? Because Baji is not a traitor. He leave Toman not betray, different from just like how Mucho did. Sanzu really value someone that understand and see the worth in him.
The way he said "im going to miss you" to Baji *sob*sob*, he must really miss Baji. (Ps : he really did use soap to wash his hair and became mess, he's so prescious, he trusted people easily when he got comfortable, just like how he with Mucho) i can see that he really adored Mucho as his 5th division Caption but he chose what he loved the most.
Haru, honey, tell me you were joking to give Mikey a wrapped hair.
Tumblr media
This kid fought people 24/7 BUT at least, he beat some deliquents. Kakucho is the one that invited all the Tenjiku member, Izana might the one who command it, and use the exvuse , " yoi are my servenat so, be useful" , thrn, i can see the bickering between them. Please, it's so funny how Izana knew Haitanis want the attention from the crowd, and he never liked it, because they are typical of competitive in the one who looks "different" in the crowd. That's the reaaon why most of Tenjiku comes with different style. I think Wakui doesnt want to give us Kakucho's birthday because he want to keep the flows that Kaku threw every information about himself.
Izana whipped out his ass is the most funniest, oh my, i rrally love them being together.
Tumblr media
Well, everything is a fun for Hanma. Why Izana and Kaku always at the top worst when it comes to "money", i means, Izana literally the leader and can be rich at the same time, not to mention his executives bring a lot benefit towards him, but on the other side, it shows that Izana didnt care about money at all.
Tumblr media
Help? They cant live without teasing Kaku at least for once. If i were there, i will definitly did the same to Kaku, he really easy to tease.
Haru's birthday 3rd July 1990, Cancer ??? I like most of my cancer friend, they are so great to be with.

THE OUTSIDERS;
007 | capture the flag
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
previous chapter | next chapter | masterlist
summary: the one where daisy returns to camp from college and is blinded by her love for him, even as the world ends
wordcount: 2.8k
Tumblr media
The next day, Luke was called off early in the morning and although she should have been there too, Chiron still had her assigned to looking after Percy.
Chiron saw how special the new kid was and he seemed to have a special gift in noticing these things.
She remembered when Luke came to camp after she got there. Chiron told her that he was going to change everything and here he was, in love with her.
Her life had changed completely since then and she knew that was what he meant. She hoped.
Percy was curious. He was always asking about the stories from camp, about what she had done, about quests she'd been on - which she clarified she'd only been on one.
He laughed at the silly stories about Luke running from the cleaning harpies or her, Nina and Lily jumping into the lake one summer.
Deep down, he knew he wanted something just like that.
They walked into the clearing and she quickly wrapped up the story about when Luke visited her at NYU and had to fight off a gorgon.
Percys brows furrowed as he heard the sound of grunting and swords clashing against each other and when they turned the corner, he watched in awe at the scene.
There were people training with swords and people putting their armour on.
"Camp warfare, all Glory to the Victor's," she explained.
He looked around, a smile on his face as he took it all in. This was the life he was going to lead from now on.
"Where's Luke?" He asked, scanning the area.
She spotted him instantly, seeinf him standing with Annabeth discussing the plan, "Training, see,"
She pointed him out and Percy nodded. He didnt expect Daisy to whistle for him, and definitely not for the boy to look up at her.
She chuckled, watching as he finished his conversation with Annabeth.
"You guys are like the IT couple right?" Percy asked.
Daisy smiled. It was nice for kids who often didn't have stable parents to see a happy couple for once.
They had been branded the IT couple since they first met, an unbreakable duo that became the most powerful kids in camp.
"A little bit like that. We're kind of the oldest in the camp, the most awarded. It's not self proclaimed, don't worry. It was Annabeth who called us that," she said.
She remembered Annabeth being a little girl, 8 years old and asking about the couple. Curious as to what a healthy relationship looked like.
They basically raised her over the years and Daisy cared about her like she would her own sister, or a daughter.
"Annabeth?" Percy asked, curious about her.
"She's the head Councillor of the Athena Cabin and she's led our team to three straight wins, been a long time since anyone's won a fourth," she explained.
Luke ran over, pressing a kiss to his girlfriends cheek before standing next to Percy, ruffling the kids hair affectionately.
"You talking about me?" He asked teasingly.
"No, Annabeth," she stated and he nodded, knowing that they were talking about the games.
They both looked over at Annabeth as she commanded the troops around her..
Percy looked over as well, slightly intimidated by her, "We're on her side all the time, she's his little sister," Daisy said.
The boy looked at Luke. Now it made sense why they were all so friendly, why Annabeth seemed to mean so much to them.
Daisy turned to her boyfriend, "You free for lunch Hun?" She asked.
"Yeah, of course," he said, wrapping an arm around her shoulder before walking the three of them over to the mess hall.
They grabbed some food from the stands and then sat down at the bench closest to the arena where the training was.
"When did you guys meet?" Percy asked, curious about the couple.
They were so popular and so revered around camp that he wanted to know everything about them.
"We met here, he came to camp a few months after I did," she explained, "I ran away from my Foster home again. My mum had died only a year earlier and I hated it,"
She looked at him and all of the memories from their first meeting came back to her.
It was November and most campers weren't there. She's always been a self diagnosed insomniac and couldn't sleep that night.
"I had snuck out of my cabin that night and heard yelling so I ran to the camp sign where I saw Luke and he was with Annabeth and this forbidden girl. Thalia,"
Their screams would be forever embedded into her mind. The image of a seven year old begging for help, screaming out. The image of Luke yelling at the Gods, asking them why they would do that.
They were just kids back then, 13 and 14 and having to look after each other, looking after everyone.
"What does that mean? Forbidden?" Percy asked.
Luke noticed her flinch when he asked that. He had known her long enough to know when she was in her own mind, thinking about it all.
He placed his hand on her thigh, reassuring him that he was there for her and wasn't going to go anywhere.
He remembered her that day, running through the woods to go and stand by them, helping Annabeth up after the death of the cyclops.
She sat there with the girl, bandaging up her arm from where she'd been hit. Then she looked up at Luke, her eyes meeting his for the first time and she became his savior, an angel that he would follow anywhere.
He's still unsure whether it was Apollo or just her but he swore she was glowing that night.
"A long time ago Zeus, Posideon and Hades agreed their children were becoming too powerful so they made a part not to father anymore. Zeus broke that paxt by having Thalia," Luke explained.
He looked at Daisy, checking to see if she was okay and when he saw that she was, he kept talking.
"Thalia didn't make it but Annabeth and me did and we've been family since," he explained.
He had never had a real family before but Annabeth was his sister. He was lucky to have these people around him.
"Annabeth. She's been watching me since I got here. Why?" Percy asked.
"Annabeth is the strongest warrior in camp. I'm the best swordsman, Daisy's the best archer but Annabeth is the best at everything," Luke told him.
"Chiron promised her that one day a demigod would arrive who was fated ro fo on a quest and when that happened she could join. She wants to know if you're the one," she explained.
He scoffed, clearly not caring that much about it, "Can you ask her to knock it off?"
"What if she's right?" Luke asked, leaning in to him.
Percy didn't have much time to think about it because at that moment, Chiron blew the conch, the sound resonating through the whole of camp.
He waited a second before proclaiming, "Heroes. Its time, the games begins,"
"Come on Percy, let's have some fun," Daisy said, standing up and following the crowd of campers running to the creek. He followed quickly, sticking with the couple.
They made it to the creek and everyone was quick to put their armour on and grab their weapons of choice.
Luke tugged on the last strap as he stood behind her, making sure the breastplate was secure. He pressed a quick kiss to where her neck and shoulder met before he rushed off to talk to Annabeth.
Like a little child being dressed by his mother, Daisy helped to put on Percys armour, teaching him where all the straps were and how to tie it all.
It was nice to have someone that cared about him but bittersweet, it all reminded him of his mother.
Luke came back just as Chiron called everyone to attention. Daisy put on her helmet, listening to the centaur speak.
"The first team to retrieve the opposing flag and return it across the river shall be the Victor. No maiming and no Killing," he stated, "Let the games begin,"
He blowed the conch shell again and the red team let out a yell. Their battle cry clearly spooked Percy as he just shook his head.
"I'm gonna need to use my sword," he muttered to himself.
As per tradition, they had twenty minutes to hide and to get situated within the woods before the real games  began with the blow of the conch horn.
Annabeth walked over to the three of them. Luke and Daisy were her go to team leaders but she had a new strategy for today.
"We have twenty minutes before the second conch and game on. You two know what you're doing?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am," Luke said, dipping his head before turning around.
Daisy was paired up with him, the two leading the biggest team through the woods.
"Luke," Annabeth called out and he stopped, looking over his shoulder at her, "While you and Daisy are out there, don't kiss too much,"
"Yes ma'am," Daisy replied, a smile on her face.
She saw Annabeths grin and it made her heart warm. She loved seeing how happy Annabeth was for them.
"Company, move out!" Daisy yelled out and their legion followed them into the woods.
She didn't look behind her but she knee that Percy was going to be confused about the whole situation.
Even though she wanted to bring him along, Annabeth forbade it as she had other plans for him. They just had to let this all work out.
Her and Lukes team ran across the bridge and then into the woods, but they stayed on their side.
This was their usual tactic, to stay in this side of the woods. They were the first line of defense before the flag.
Daisy barely had time to catch her breath before she spotted someone in the distance running towards them.
"Get ready!" Luke yelled out.
When the red team arrived in their clearing of the woods, Daisy jumped into action mode, pulling her sword out.
Her Archery skills weren't needed in today's plan and she trusted Annabeth so instead she held her trusty sword in hand, remembering everything Luke taught her.
She knocked somebody's sword out of their hand, ducking just at the right time and watching it fly into a tree.
Her and Luke found each other eventually, standing back to back as they covered one another from any attacks.
One of the larger guy came over and she knew that her sword fighting skills weren't going to be good enough.
Instead, she used Lukes back and leaned against him before kicking the man in the chest.
She watched Nathan from the Hephestaus cabin tumble to the floor before she moved away, blocking someone with her shield.
Daisy didn't see who it was, but when she turned around, someone had sliced her arm with their sword.
She let out a yell before turning around and going to hit the person but there was nobody there.
Luke heard her scream and when he saw one of the older campers standing there next to her with blood on his sword, he did the only thing he could think of.
He disarmed the teenager, watching their helmet fall off bfore he punched him in the face, watching him fall to the ground.
"We give up," the red team leader said when she saw the way the fire burned in Lukes eyes, almost glowing.
The team cheered but Daisy couldnt look away from Luke. She was glad he was standing up for her but there was something strange in his face.
He had this smug smile on his face and an almost bloodthirsty look in his eyes. But the second he looked at her, his features softened.
"You okay baby?" He asked, rushing to her side.
Her heart filled with warmth as she looked at him, brows furrowed and eyes laser focused on the wound on her arm.
"It's just a cut, I've recieved worse," she promised and he looked up at her. When he saw that there was little pain on her face, he let out a sigh of relief.
"I know, we were both there on that quest," he chuckled, thinking back to the injuries they received then.
Hers was hidden, a large scar over her right side, spanning her ribs. His was more obvious, a scar over his eye.
Luke knew he was doing exactly what Annabeth told him not to do, get distracted by his girlfriend.
He looked out at the group who were chatting amongst themselves.
"I wanna move quick, straight through the woods to their flag," he said.
Chris shook his head, he knew all about the other teams tactics, "We both know Clarisse hunts in those woods for the first few hours,"
"She's gonna cut us down," Lily said as she came to stand beside him.
"Annabeth has a plan," Daisy reassured as she pulled a roll of bandages out of her pocket - she always carried it around.
They knew that the plan was to lure Clarisse out using Percy. Her vendetta against him was obvious and this was going to help them to win.
Chris groaned, looking at Lily. The two of them had figured out that Percy was the plan and both of them didn't really believe in it.
"When it's time, he'll be ready. I know it," Daisy said as she put the end of the bandages between her teeth, ripping it apart before she stuffed the roll in her pocket.
She wrapped the bandage haphazardly against her forearm, Luke tying it gently at the top.
Daisy took a deep breath. She was ready to help lead this team to another victory.
"Move out!" She yelled and their team followed her through the woods.
They knew where the flag was going to be. Clarisse was predictable, she always left it in the exact same place. Every time.
This time, she wasn't there to defend it. There were only a few of her red team lackeys and they managed to take them out fast enough.
The daughter of ares had failed this time, allowing her revenge to take over and it gave them the chance to look up at the flag.
Annabeth normally made it there first and would take the flag but this time, she was elsewhere, looking after Percy.
"You grab it sweetheart," Luke said as he stood behind her.
She looked up at him, the biggest grin on her face before she grabbed the flag and lifted it into the air.
Her team yelled out in a group cheer, all of them glad that they had reached a four time winning streak for the game.
They ran towards the lake, placing the flag down where they had been instructed to.
Chiron was waiting there and he blew the conch shell when he saw the red flag placed down. They had won.
All of the blue team that were out in the woods came out and cheered at their victory, everyone so excited with the win that they didn't see Percy and Annabeth by the lake.
Luke picked his girlfriend up, spinning her around before kissing her passionately, not caring what anyone else said.
She leaned her head on his chest, taking a second to appreciate the moment. The roar of the victory, his body against hers.
She pulled away when she heard someone yell out. The cheers went quiet and everyone's gaze went to the lake.
Annabeth had pushed percy into the lake and he was sitting there, an angry expression on his face.
"What is wrong with you?" He yelled out but stopped when he noticed something.
His wounds were being healed by the water and everyone watched, realising what this meant.
The blue trident sign lit up over his head as he stood up, claiming him ad the son of Poseidon.
Daisy didn't need to look to see the dissappinted expression that befell Lukes face.
She knew that he wanted to have Percy on his team, that if he remained unclaimed then his anger for the Gods would only grow.
"You have been claimed by Poseidon. Earth shaker, storm breaker," Chiron announced.
Everyone cheered for him, the camp alight with the buzz of the blue team victory and the claiming of a son of Poseion.
Daisy grabbed onto Lukes hand, her head falling onto his armour clad shoulder.
"It's okay," she said and he leaned down, pressing a kiss to the top of her head before they went to celebrate with the other, congratulating Percy.
There was the feeling of pride in her heart but buried in there was also relief that Percy had been claimed. He was going to be okay.

holy shit deuce
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i swear hes not usually so angry lol
(chapter 12 of the rose red tyrant. this conversation isn't really that important lol so theres no actual spoilers)
im just like '..oh.. the eggs. i guess we gotta go back D:..'
deuce suddenly starts getting really pissed off at the delinquents, which startles me every time cause idk man he always seems so calm and level-headed. and then he isnt haha??
very very funny (why does he care so much about the eggs?? maybe that's more because he's more conscious of how much money is spent and stuff like that but pff)
he like went on to be like 'APOLOGIZE TO THE CHICKENS'
hehehehe
i figure they could probably be like 'those eggs were for the Heartslabyul housewarden' cause I figure that Riddle probably has a reputation that'd make them fear him. or maybe not, but still. like something something 'if we're late to making those tarts for the unbirthday party then we'll make sure he knows who to blame' or something. *headbang* i already forgot whether it was like meant for today or tomorrow. i think it was for tomorrow but i mean still (the delinquents dont strike me as the type who'd be able to be rude to people who are actually high up and important and have a reputation and so on and so on)
getting 'off with your head' on you probably sucks. but losing access to your magic is like. dying basically (or basically a thing ppl dont want to happen? i dont think it actually kills them but yknow)
but i mean. directing someone else who you know deserves it to get 'offed with their head' because they decided to mess with someone for basically no reason (context: one of us bumped into them during lunch and made like the egg think in the middle break? i think its one of those things you get the satisfaction of mixing it in with the food but they didnt get it, but it was still PERFCTLY edible. this time they bumped into us and we lost six of our eggs and still got pissed off when we blamed them, which, hello?? you blamed us last time and we beat you up. you think we suddenly got weaker?? hello???)
would honestly be really satisfying. like haha hows it feel to be magicless? like me? (variations of: 'how does it feel to know i, a magicless person, beat you?' i mean i know we're really more like guiding and commanding the peeps on what magic spells to use and stuff like that. but you cant tell me that if a magic person who lost their magic and fought a magicless person would win. because they arent used to fighting without magic. while we are. hehehehe)
edit: i made the mention of deuce saying apologize to the chickens and i thought he meant apologize to the chickens that birthed them and stuff. BUT NO HE THOUGHT THE EGGS STILL HAD CHICKENS IN THEM??? LMFAOOO
also i said tarots instead of tarts pff

Pirate AU, captain Plum getting so angry at Peach, so stupidly furious, maybe she withheld information, maybe she did somethign dangerous and stupid, maybe she chased a ghost and endangered the crew, or just...was so dimissive to her own existence it just finally got to her, maybe she'd spent too long drowning her sorrows and being useless. Whatever caused it, Plum starts to throw her weight around as a leader. Kicks her second in command her sword, Peach doesnt even carry it most days, whats the point? She wont die if she's caught without it. So she sees it being presented, eyeing the captain from where she sits.
"Pick it up." Plums dead serious, Peach ignores her, she says it again, louder, angrier. the second time was not a request at all, so with a sluggish stagger peach gets up, picks her sword up, it is not in the best condition, she'd fix that but cant be bothered. It doesnt matter to her one way or another.
She instinctivley blocks an incoming attack, Plum is so mad, venting her anger at this woman through practice, or...maybe this isnt practice? She's attacking with real intent, perhaps a good fight would knock some sense into Peach. The woman seems only half heartedly bothering to defend, she doesnt fight back in any way, slowly being backed up to a mast, ducking to not get hit in the side, plums blade dinking off the wooden trunk.
This goes on for a while, with each lazy movement Plum becomes more furious, how is she putting so little effort into this and coming out unscathed? It dawns on her that if Peach was to fight back, would she have the clear advantage she thought she originally posessed? Plum thought she was the more refined and skilled fighter but...this womans wasting her potential.
Peach grows bored of the back and forth, instead of dodging, taking the hit. People tended to stop attacking soon after that. In a real fight she'd fake her death and get up after a minute of pretending to get back and protect whoever needs it. Plum however knows this tactic, she cant fake her death, the sword in her shoulder hurts, shes immortal, not immune to pain, grabbign it by the blade and pushing it back out of her, an act that unsettles plum, seeing the womans hand cut as she didnt struggle to remove her sword. No slowing, no time to think, plum takes another quick move to land another hit.
Theyre nose to nose, blade through this womans torso, poking out the other side. Of course Peach cries out from the sting of it, gutteral response, but it subsides, she can ignore it and focus on the captain, glaring up at her with such rage in her eyes.
"You done?" a raised eyebrow and calm demeanour from the old pirate. "Fight back." Plum wanted to see what was lurking on this ship, what she'd hired, irritated still from earlier. "You dont want that, just let me go back to my drink." Peach eyed the bottle stood on a barrel not too far away, just wanting a peaceful watch on deck. "No. You need to care. You need to do more than defend, I need a second in command who'll activley try to live, to survive, not just be a walking pin cushion and hope to die every time you take a hit."
This was stupid, the slight twist of the blade in peach's gut a threat, Plum felt guilt, she shoudlnt have been doing this, knew it hurt her, but would never kill. The irrittion that this idiot, this woman who could do so much, would just simply choose to do nothing instead got to her however.
"I'm not fighting you."
"Why not?!" Plums sword slid out and she took another agile swing, slicing through the womans shoulder, she didn teven try to move away from it.
"Because theres no point. You'll lose, all the skill in the world wont end me, its a fruitless task." And truth be told, Peach wouldnt raise a blade to her, couldnt even, unsure why, just...couldnt bare to fight her properly, fully aware of the horrors she'd enacted on foe in the past, no friend deserves that.
"So you only act when its too late? Only do something when youve already lost." At such close proximity Plum was able to glare at her, and for a brief moment, Peach felt something she'd not had in her for a while. Rage. Not more than four days prior to this she'd mentioned the past, her wife, the way she got revenge for what happened. It felt like...Plum was calling her out for that. For not doing enough then, as if what happened was her fault. While to some degree she agreed, the fact that someone would think she'd not fight tooth and nail to protect what she loved sunk in, a second or two ticking by as the fury started to collect.
Some small fragment of her old self started to surface, instead of pulling her body off the blade, taking one hand and shoving her opponent hard, sword going with her, freeing Peach and giving them a meters grace, space to adjust.
For the first time, Plum felt a little fear because of this woman, watching her straighten up, stop slouching, hold her sword properly, but more than anything, it was her eyes, they looked dark and menacing now, not tired or dismissive like before.
"I need to see that you dont let disaster hit before you do something. The crew need a second in command who cares wether they live or die. I need you to show me you have any real fight in you left, because right now, you look like youve given up." Peach was drunk, her shirt now had some holes in it, a small amount of blood on her person, wounds already healing up, sticthing back together, realising she'd not instilled any faith in anyone here since arriving.
"Fine. Have it your way." That deep seated anger started to rattle around in her, for the first time during this exchange, taking a step forward instead of simply defending. Plum did all she could to stop what happened next. The swing of that chipped old blade was so heavy it broke through her defence, staggering her back quickly, Peach's pace refusing to faulter, closing the gap steadily, as if fully in control, it was daunting, she didnt flinch to block the striked plum threw, eyes set ahead. "This is what you wanted right?" another solid hit had to be dodged, not blocked, there was no way Plum could handle another stagger like that. Their fight was brief. within five hits, the old and in places rusted weapon wrapped itself in such a way around the captains pristeen rapier, a moment where peach flinged the sword across the deck, clattering as she took one strike to threaten.
Plum felt a sting on her cheek, a thin line of red starting to appear, such a controlled strike that it only scratched her, looking up to see the looming threat standing close. "Dont you dare think that I wouldnt act before its too late. Thats...not what happened before."
It was suddenly apparent how this woman gained such a reputation, not once since she'd joined the ship had Plum seen it, never seen her do more than the bare minimum. The sword was sheathed, and Peach turned, grabbing the bottle she'd been forced to leave, leading her way off up the other end of the ship to be alone.
At least the captain knew now just what she was working with, and it frightened her a little.

I'm thinking about the powers of MHA and how trying to explain it with science is not as cool as people initially thought. Why? "Well for a eye to shot laser on command it would require to do X and Y which could result in the person being blind before before reaching 20"
Scott Summer from the Xmen deals with a similar dilemma and in some alt universes he does lose his sight in some capacity, but in the main line...aside from some bizarre retcons as his eyes being portals, it is a power it doesnt need much explanation.
He can shoot things with his eye laser, pretty simple.
In mha? Not so much. Bc aside Dabi, Aoyama and Izu...no one has issues with their quirks hurting them. No one is curious about it and....the powers presented on the characters are there just for a gag.
In the provencial license second chance, Shoto and Camie sees lil kids, my dude, there a kid who has a canon in his mouth. How science can explain that?
Izu can analyse the quirks but he does in a way that is still linked to fantasy. No one in the real world will ever have a cannon mouth(forever bitter Hori made Izu analysing quirks as a "har har isnt that guy spooky?! Hoe funny")
I think it boils down to two things.
1) NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN THEIR OWN QUIRK "OH I CAN FLY? MEH WHATEVER "
2)Hori has no thought behind any of the powers and it is only there for a cool shot and never again.
That's my take.
Hi @mikeellee 👋,
Here's the thing. I love the idea of these powers being grounded in realism to a degree - I feel like there's a lot of good plot points and realism to be explored in a universe like MHA.
Izuku having to use his smarts to figure out how to not break his bones with OFA as well as OFA being his only power? - An interesting plot point! And a good way to show off Izuku's smarts too when he works out what to do with OFA.
The consequences of quirk marriages - having a power very ill suited to their body through Dabi? - An interesting plot point! Because if superpowers came into our universe you bet narcissistic, Power hungry assholes like Endeavor would have marriages like this.
A power ill-suited for their body like Aoyama? Could tie into the quirk singularity theory that Hori brought up now and again if he didnt make Aoyama a previously quirkless person who got his quirk from AFO!
The problem is, as you said, these issues coincide with people seemingly having a lack of interest about their power. Which doesn't make sense actually. Because I can imagine there should be tonnes of people, like Izuku, gagging to study quirks!
Think of how many Scientists, Doctors and Authors we have in our universe - the concept of quirks is essentially science fiction and magic made life. I know I, if I were in MHA, would be just like Izuku thinking about how cool this all is and wanting to help people with their quirk powers. Especially if there were people like Izuku, Dabi and Aoyama out there needing help with their quirks.
To answer your two concluding points -
1) the attitude of "MEH whatever" that people in MHA have to their quirks. Doesn't make sense to me on a fundamental level because, sure while some would take that attitude, there should be more like Izu (and AFO) interested in quirks out there.
2) Hori doesn't seem to think through the quirks he gives his characters anymore, let alone explore them or give them any limitations which is also why Izuku isn't allowed to care for it anymore either. It can make MHA feel infuriating at times.

@cosmicallyavg okay sorry if you didnt want me to respond but the autism won today and i thought abt nothing but this for like 3 hours so
i think the doctor knows yaz has done/will do the same morally questionable things as her if it becomes necessary? because for her to be self aware about herself, and then also aware of yaz becoming her in a way. she has to assume that its a possibility. and asking her to hold the master at gunpoint is her testing that theory i think. because yaz very well could have straight up not done it but in the end, shes her equal, she admires her (and wants to impress her lets be real), and she has a duty of care. she knows/assumes how dangerous the master is and doesnt want anything to happen to Her doctor if she can help it. theres no use being squeamish weve got the doctor to save.
i hadnt thought of that angle but the doctor consciously sort of testing how much yaz will indeed do exactly as she herself would, and guessing right on that front is so interesting. i was reading 13s comics yesterday and she did it multiple times there too, like delegating to yaz for llittle minidoctor tasks like occupying herself with a victim like she does in witchfinders with willa too, and like just literally going "yaz, go play police at those aliens" (i said "be police" first but 1 no jurisdiction, and 2 for the doctor 'be' and 'play' are the same thing)
and when she gets yaz that gun, it's so interesting bc to me at least it feels like simultaneously theres the power dynamic of doctor-companion where yaz is definitely a step lower like shes not in charge here (compared to later with vinder) but what the doctor uses that power she has to do is to like place some of it in yaz if that makes sense? she's using yaz as a proxy of herself, which sounds bad but i think thats what shes doing?
like guns for the doctor are this visual sign that theyre going against their own principles right? it's not really the violence of guns that the doctor protests bc theyre plenty violent, but it's a visual representation of their principles right? we see this with 10 when he wont take wilfs gun against the master but when he hears timelords are coming he does. 13 being willing to use a gun on the master means shes willing to break her own rules to deal with him (which the doctor always kinda is with them thats part of the problem but i dont think it's in the "i forgive you one more time even though i shouldnt way" this time)
but also! she doesnt touch the gun herself. she orders a soldier thats at her command (actively breaking her own rules) to give it to yaz. ace talks abt this i believe in at childhoods end, to yaz. that like, the doctor is not opposed to violence but they will keep their own hands clean if they can. as opposed to 10 who picked up the gun himself, 13 lets yaz do it. and then later, bc of course the doctor cant shoot people, yaz lets vinder be the one to actually shoot the master. 
so 13 is outsourcing her principle breaking wrt the master to yaz, but i think shes aware of it. it's not like letting yaz handle the gun is eschewing her own responsibility, i think she doubles her feeling of responsibility, bc not only is she breaking her own rules, shes making yaz break them too (clara voice: and now youve made me lie! youve made me your accomplice!) which is why it feels so simultaneously like equal and unequal, yaz is both doctor and companion in potd.
(short detour abt what you said abt "theres no use being squeamish weve got the doctor to save" like yeah thats exactly it. i wrote a fic where yaz shoots the master and the doctor is like Why The Fuck Did You Do That bc while she expected yaz to take the gun (bc she would), she didnt expect her to shoot (bc she wouldnt), but that then maybe reveals a sort of distorted image she has of both herself and yaz. bc yaz did shoot, which means the doctor would shoot even if shes so dedicated to the image of herself as The Doctor that she might not realise that she would. and it reveals an underestimation of yazs feelings for her, and her sense of duty, and how far she will go, has gone, to try and save the doctor. the master is a threat, so she shoots (im thinking again of clara and 8x12 where 12 literally offers to shoot missy to protect clara('s immortal soul))
and abt that equality, like, there was this photoset i saw last week of bts stuff from s11 i think? chibnall talking abt the first meeting in the train. which was basically just like that post i made ythat you linked except chibnall was talking abt it from 13s perspective, which i hadnt considered dkdjdjdh
i saw your tags when you reblogged that post and i thought abt them for a bit but didnt respond bc i dont think i entirely agree? theres a definite, like, respect and i think recognition on the doctors side of things when they first meet and she does the thing i wrote abt in that post where she like listens to yaz and then presents her own plan and this first listening to yaz probably fixed a problem they might have had if she had just forcefully tried to push yaz out of the authority position she was in there as a police among civilians, where yaz might have fought for the leadership position the entire rest of the night and maybe rest of their time together (not that thats not also a fun version of events to think about) 
anyway to get back to the point, yes theres that respect, and the doctor uses yaz for her skills since the beginnig, but i dont really agree that it's equal necessarily. the power difference is too big and too easily leveraged by 13 for me to call it equal
when it comes to doctor-companion power dynamics the first thing i always think about is the tardis, because it's this really concrete and undeniable representation of that power right? you need this ship and you need this pilot or you are most likely never going home again. thats just like a fact at the foundation of most doctor-companion relationships (excluding companions who have their own means of transport or could fly the tardis maybe like river or romana). im not saying thats on purpose or the doctor likes it, im just saying when youre stranded on an alien planet and theres one person who is capable of making sure you dont die, doug eiffel voice: really really far away from home, then youre not gonna do anything that person doesnt want you to do. or at least youre gonna be hesitant to
so following the big bluish money (tardis), i think the real equality between them finally only really arrives
Tumblr media
here. in their last scene together. where the doctor can say "you know what this means right?" bc yaz already does despite still not being told anything, and yaz can say "lets not say goodbye" bc the doctor is not good at goodbyes and the doctor is both of them
thats what really appeals to me abt writing them post-potd everybody lives happily ever after au, this partnership that we only ever got to see glimpses of. in a version of events where 13 lived after this, we could see what that partnership really would have looked like

uagh ok so u know how i was like "let me talk about wesker and how he just had a really WILD TIME in the mental health department between post-arklay and RE5" well what i mean by this is-
wesker was already swinging into a manic episode a month or so before the mansion incident. he was more energetic, he slept even less than he usually did, and everyone seemed to mistake it for enthusiasm. it was hypomania. injecting himself with a goddamn virus basically caused symptoms that could be classified as drug induced psychosis, except it isn't drug induced, it's literally his entire biological makeup was altered (and that gets its own post because i saw a post about "why didnt we get to see wesker going thru it as the t virus rewrites every goddamn cell in his body" i'm going to get to that!)
so fast forward to december 1998, wesker's really going through it now! he's hit a state of very intense mania, he's got the delusions of grandeur, he just has no impulse control, he's running around because he has so much energy to expend and he finds it difficult to stay still due to feeling restless- also this is one of the more obvious "judgement limited, insight poor" moments, he thinks he can get the virus sample but lmao no he's trashed by alexia (i do not care what the redo of CV says, i like having alexia being able to kick wes' ass, it makes for interesting character development things!) but he still gets the job done,
so then we have the span of time between CV and RE5- wesker's mental state mellows out enough that he can be the cool calm collected mastermind that he likes to present himself as- he's behind the fuckery of RE4, but he seems rather calm about it- as in of course he's still going through the whole delusions of grandeur thing and sure does have some mania symptoms, but it isn't like the rockfort incident behavior.
that just all loops back when things shift toward wesker's arrival at spencer's personal home, and of course with the big reveal from spencer, wesker really just doesn't cope with that at all. on top of this, he's been using an immunosuppressant that prevents his body from fighting off a virus that literally turns people into beings that run on base instinct with little to no impulse control (some tyrants can follow commands, but in a limited way, it's not like they follow complex directions), so yeah the mania symptoms ramped up again-
it's after 5 that he goes into the depression, and i've talked about that before im pretty sure...
for reference, wesker's first episode of mania was when he was 18, although there's a chance it could've been drug induced because albert wesker used every single stimulant ever to stay awake through his college years and his early umbrella research years and that sure didn't do anything good for his brain chemistry

OKAY SECOND PART (I HIT THE CHARACTER LIMIT I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THERE WAS A LIMIT ON TUMBLR
again, big long text under the readmore
we were on proto werent we yeah
proto gets along with CB and Bubbles a lot better than with Flora, since cb and bubbles actually follow their orders and plans, even before theyre promoted to captain. flora obeys them even less after theyre promoted, for the record
this is very obviously because theyre traumatised child soldiers who were conditioned by both the octarian military and the metro where you explode if you dont follow instructions, but proto manages to delude themselves into thinking it's bc the twins respect their leadership
the twins completely stop obeying them after splatoon 3. granted, they leave the NSS after splat3, but by that point flora and bola have managed to get them out of the "you gotta obey authority figures Or Else" mentality
also because uh. the twins got the rest of their mem cakes back LMAO they remember what proto and the squid sisters set in motion and are NOT happy. theyd be willing to forgive if they had apologised rather than hiding it and hoping the twins wouldnt find out but they didnt sooooo
bola HATES proto so goddamn much. theyve met in person maybe thrice. the first time was when octo expansion had just finished and the way proto was talking to these kids bola's age like they were soldiers rubbed them the wrong way. the second time, proto came across bola while they were stealing something and called the cops on them. the third time was when they came back from alterna and visited flora in the hospital. bola had to be physically restrained to stop them trying to bite out protos jugular. they got one good sucker-punch in at least
NEXT IS PLUTO (THEY/THEM, NEO 3) BUT I'M NOT SUPER CERTAIN ABOUT THESE HEADCANONS SO THEYRE SUBJECT TO CHANGE
Pluto's "Lil' Buddy" is a Horrorboros called Leviathan's Flight over Verdant Pastures (she/her), or levi for short
(idk if that salmonid name makes sense, salmonid naming and rainworld iterator naming have blended together in my mind and i cannot separate them)
theyre actually older than proto! proto is 24 in splat3 and pluto is 27. proto doesnt know this because i think it should be a recurring character flaw that proto just randomly assumes people's ages and doesnt ask ever.
pluto straight up doesn't care about the NSS or proto's commands. they came down into the crater to scavenge, attacked octavio cause they wanted to tear apart and sell his mech, and is basically motivated by the same "i want the treasure" mindset as Deep Cut
unlike deep cut, they have a horrorboros as a partner. they dont fight deep cut so much as they launch booyah bombs until they yield
it's splatlands culture to fight people, shows that you respect them enough to consider them a threat, but also asserts that you're stronger than them and could kick their ass
they are Very offended when the NSS just start USING the treasure that THEY earned, especially when it gets so damaged by the fuzzy ooze that it's basically unsaleable. theres a dramatic moment of proto being like "why the hell are you mad we literally got this to save gramps" and pluto being like "WE??? kid you didnt do shit and i dont care about your grandpa. fuck off and let me do my thing"
the fight with grizz is VERY fast. if smallfry gets that big, what do you think happens to a horrorboros? the moon is permanently coated in salmonid-ink in a suspiciously booyah bomb shaped pattern. they take all the most valuable bits of the rocket to sell and dont even go back down to alterna
as far as they're concerned, they were never a member of the NSS, never wanted to be, and owe nothing to these presumptious assholes. theyve got better things to do than argue with some spoiled inkopolis kids
in this version of canon, deep cut respect pluto and levi (the ones who showed respect by fighting them for the treasure) over the NSS (the ones who stole the treasure for their own purposes without fighting or even issuing a challenge), so they decide that pluto and levi are their bosses instead
pluto groans when they find out. levi thinks it's hilarious
oh yeah i need actual context for pluto and levi not just redescribing the splat3 campaign
theyre both rogues, deliberately unaffiliated with any groups (shoals? schools?) of salmonids or any particular inkfish city. they were raised together with salmonids but levi didnt see any particular honour or value in getting killed and eaten so pluto suggested running away together
they make a living by scavenging in the splatlands and selling to people on the outskirts of splatsville which, in this canon, is a hell of a lot more chaotic than in-game
deep cut also have a lot more actual authority than "the idol group who announces the map changes" in this canon, which pluto is not above using to get them and levi unrestricted access in and out of the city. having minions has some benefits, they guess
idk if theyre ever gonna meet the leftovers squad. i honestly dont know if pluto would care about a random group of inkopolis teens unless i made some plot reason for them to. idk
ANYWAY THATS ALL OF THEM. FOR NOW

Info about akuma! Kny
Tumblr media
personality
his personality is eh bad at best. He will be very rude to any one (Incudling people of higher power), if  said person ever happen to insult or question his work. Depending on the person he is arguing with he is willing to fight despite being clearly weaker (When i mean depending i mean mostly anyone that akuma knows wouldent behead him the moment he shoves/push).
When he isnnt  rude to people you can tell his ego is deeper then hell it’s self as . Even if the other person is better then him. He still finds way to be better in a small way or a big way!.
But also his ego  can easily be broken so if he even assume you insulting him get ready to be yelled at and insulted.
Like some demons he can and will cry but you need to do certain things to make him do so!.
For example any higher ups then him calling him useless,Good for nothing,failure,Waste of a life,disgrace or anything related to it. He will cry  and even try to insult you back but at that point he is going flee so dont expect to hear back from him for a long while! (beside muzan, akuma is too afraid to ignore muzan commands to meet him face to face)
Akuma also stubborn, very stubborn. But he isnt that dumb if he knows he going to lose a fight he will spare the embrassment of losing my fleeing. He will hold grudges until he feel like he got his justice on said person, you hardly will see a moment  of akuma being a nice to a another demon (Cause in his mind anything of kindness is weakness). 
But in the rare chances you do, you can tell he is trying to be nice to said person (usally friends or preferred person) by  attempting to behave and control his anger near then and wont be as loud when arguing with said person, And MAYBE allow to be insulted sightly (But just be aware, some insults can hurt more than others and will/can worry your friendship with said person)
And in some cases  if he trusts you enough to not abuse/backstab his weakness, he will be more weak towards said lucky person for example, He will show more emotion beside anger.he come for you for advice or opinions on matters he doesnt care/ doesnt understand well enough to  really take time to consider. Treat him how he wants to be treated and You have a semi asshole demon as a friend.
Also of course like any demon he has fears.. He is afraid of dying weak and pathic, failling to do something,dying,being backed stab by anyone he trusts and being hurt badly by his food (which is why he targets certain people.)He targets  new/hurt  demon slayers or unattend childern 
Also for fun i tell yall how you can embarrassed akuma, calling out his bluffs,saying something he didnt expected (Doesnt even need to be nsfw, his mind will need to restart and figure out how to respond),showing akuma that he can do a certain thing better than him, copying his amount of any emotion,suffering any consequences in pubic,getting him off guard (50/50 chance of him yellings at you or just make him embarrassed), failing at doing something infront of someone (ex hunting a demon slayer and they got away/ managed to fight akuma away from them as somone same or higher rank watches him fail)
Other info!
Name:  Akuma no sagi-shi  /  阿隈の鷺市
Name in english  (google transleter sucks man :<): devil's deceiver
Perferd targets: Weaker/Injuried  or newer swordmen and unattend children 
Design/Appearance : Heavly base off of  a siren and wearing large clothing as patchs of skin has fish scale and  usually  when he  out  and about he cover his head with a black head covering and a black and white mask to prevent humans seeing his  siren features and he always wear his the standard Demon Slayer uniforms consisting of a gakuran jacket and hakama  pants  and pretends to be a medic or helper when out in the night looking for a meal
Draining Tears
This blood demon art   stuns swordsmen with ear-piercing sobs  the sob itself sounds  despairing and very much desperate, while that happen a temporary increase in healing speed occours  as the opponet gets stuned akuma tears and pleads are short lived as he trys to end the opponents life the second they stop moving 
Draining Tears  weakness
The blood demon art is self pretty much affects swordsmen who are weaker and ones that second think of beheading akuma but  it has hard time effecting harder opponents only at most surprise them at best and the small amount of time akuma healing is speed up he will lose some energy 
Mimcking Waves
This blood demon art allows akuma to mimck voices of people he ate (ex man,woman,child) and is usally used to lure  unsuspecting  weak swordsmen or folks who happen to hear the voices of the distress kid,man or woman nearby 
Mimcking Waves
The weakness of mimicking waves is the unpredictable chance of  attracting strong swordsmen  towards the voices he mimcks  and making  akuma easy to locate in busy areas as if akuma panics when mimicking you can hear the voice breaking and cracking out of character of a preassumed man,woman or child 
Water hideaways
The blood demon art is a combtion of offense and defense, it has ability to manifest a water puddle it allows travel underground hence allowing Akuma to escape or heal underground Additionally, the emergence of betta fishes from the puddle to defend and attack nearby threats 
Water hideaways weakness
The Water hideaways weaknness is that The betta fishes themselves are easily defeated  if put in enough effort Furthermore, the energy-draining nature of maintaining the water puddle limits its duration, making it suitable only for life-or-death scenarios. 
Additionally, Akuma's need to surface   at random intervals when the betta fishes are being defeated easily and akumas needed to take charge and level out the field   making  them vulnerable during these moment .
Aqua Blades
This blood demon art allows akuma to solidify summoud water making them into blades These blades can be controlled if akumas  pays attention to the blades form
Aqua Blades weakness 
The Aqua Blades weakness is it is needed get close to the swordsmen which has many risk and depending on the opponent it will put them  themselves in a vulnerable position. And it has the  increases the likelihood of being counterattacked or overpowered by opponents who may have superior strength or weaponry.

me rambling about technical function of limited life time! this is just observations, really dont mean to make a jab at who put to together, but this season made me realize just how manual things are, and how changes are being made mid-series.
last episode there was no announcement message for people getting kicked out of the game. so they added that last minute, cool. but then cleo dies at the same time as bdubs and her message gets message up. instead of "username" in big red text with lower text being "ran out of time" the red text got replaced by cleo's "-1 hour" text. obviously i can see how it is working and for a last minute add in i can understand it got fucked up, but cleo didnt realize he was out because of that.
additionally one other small issue had is when people run out of time, and are killed by someone or anything, it doesnt get to show how they died in the chat it seems. which is even more confusing for ppl trying to figure out their times, and last episode ppl didnt even realize who died (which again, good they changed that.). From a coding perspective, i am not entirely sure why it would leave it out- i guess the mechanic for dying by the timer is completely unrelated or overwriting the last hit they get (the kill takes out an hour but the time kills them, not the killer).
for those who weren't thinking about it too- last episode they did give everybody the ability to give themself time which seemed very much needed so grian wasnt the only one doing it. of course this led to some conflict about who got time- and in the end i dont care personally, but i imagine that being a lot more to handle for individual players than a simple boogey every so often.
ill have to watch grian's pov bc he says he killed bdubs but it seemed to me he probably blew up from impulse. seems way more likely he lost his health that way (of course dont know what hearts bdubs was on so.) but the lack of death message makes it unknown for the most part.
i find it interesting how much of this is unplanned and kind of figured out on the fly. makes me wonder if they ever pre-test more than maybe a few commands. i was in the process of wanting to make my own thing like this and was getting stressed about how to code it but uh, looks like this was pretty bare bones and manual, more than i realized. which i guess is less of a worry for me in terms of making something myself, but a worry in the sense of moderating a game like that lol... props to grian for managing LL but especially for Limlife where i cant even imagine dealing w that for he first majority of the season where he was the only one doing it apparently. it is a lot to figure out-- and i bet its not something that comes to make people's minds when they think about playing a datapack of LL.... but now with one's for Lim life existing, or boy you're asking to do a lot if thats the case.
